Detroit Enrollment Center
Detroit, MI
Detroit Enrollment Center's official interview schedule is typically booked solid for months. But travelers cancel, miss flights, and reschedule every single day.
Those cancelled appointments drop back into the government system without warning and vanish in under 90 seconds. Instead of refreshing your browser all day, LineCutter monitors Detroit Enrollment Center every 30 seconds and texts your phone the instant someone cancels.
Interview Demand & Cancellation Drop Patterns
CBP appointments drop back into the government scheduling database at unpredictable intervals. Historical data shows major cancellation surges occur on Sunday evenings and Monday mornings when business travelers revise weekly travel plans, and 24 to 48 hours before scheduled weekday appointments.
Plan B Strategy: Joint CBP & CBSA Interview Options
NEXUS requires joint approval from both US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA). If border center slots are booked, travelers can also explore the split interview option (US interview at Canadian preclearance airport locations, followed by Canadian CBSA interview).
